Getting omega-3s into children is one of the most important things you can do for their developing brain, and one of the hardest if the supplement tastes like fish.
Getting omega-3s into children is one of the most important things you can do for their developing brain, and one of the hardest if the supplement tastes like fish. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and vision, both critical during the years when your child is learning, reading, concentrating and growing fastest.
Chew 2 softgels daily. These can be taken with a meal to aid absorption, as omega-3 fatty acids are better absorbed alongside dietary fat. Follow the dosage on the packaging and consult a healthcare professional if your child has any existing health conditions.
Getting omega-3s into children is one of the most important things you can do for their developing brain, and one of the hardest if the supplement tastes like fish. These don't. Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega Junior delivers 680mg of omega-3s per serving (EPA and DHA combined) in a natural strawberry-flavoured soft gel that children aged 6-12 will actually look forward to taking. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and vision, both critical during the years when your child is learning, reading, concentrating and growing fastest.

Sign inUltimate Omega Junior is formulated for children, but check the packaging for the specific recommended age range. If you are unsure whether it is suitable for your child's age or weight, speak with your GP or paediatrician before starting.
EPA and DHA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids that the body does not efficiently produce on its own. DHA is a structural component of the brain and retina, and is particularly important during periods of growth and development. EPA is studied for supporting a balanced inflammatory response.
Omega-3 softgels are typically derived from fish oil, which means they are not appropriate for children with a confirmed fish allergy. Check the allergen information on the packaging and consult your child's doctor or allergist if you have any concerns.
Omega-3 supplementation generally takes several weeks of consistent use to build up in the body. Subtle effects on focus or mood are not always easy to observe directly — the primary value here is ensuring adequate intake over time rather than producing a noticeable short-term effect.
Storage requirements vary by product. Check the packaging for specific guidance. As a general rule, omega-3 supplements benefit from being kept away from heat and direct light to minimise oxidation.
Overall

My 7-year-old is incredibly fussy about anything health-related, so I was bracing for a fight. He chews them without complaint and even reminds me in the morning. We've been on them about three months now and his teacher mentioned his focus in class has improved — can't say it's definitely this but it's certainly not hurting. Will keep buying.

Kids eat no fish whatsoever so needed something reliable. These do the job.

My daughter takes these without any fuss, which is a win. My only gripe is the flavour is quite artificially sweet — more like a sweet than a supplement. She loves that, obviously, but I'd prefer something a bit more subtle. The quality feels solid and I trust the brand, so we'll carry on.

Our GP referred us to a paediatric dietitian who specifically mentioned this brand. Been using it for about six weeks with our 5-year-old. Easy to give, no fishy aftertaste, and the softgel format is much less messy than the liquid omega we tried before. Happy customer.

Swapped from a supermarket own-brand and noticed the quality difference straight away — no off smell, no complaints from the kids. Ticks every box.

Tried three different omega supplements before this one. The chewable softgel format is genuinely different — it's not a gummy, not a liquid, just a soft little gel that the kids bite through easily. My two (ages 6 and 9) both take it without drama. The peace of mind knowing they're getting a decent dose of EPA and DHA given how little oily fish they eat is worth every penny.
